Thanks to Richard Green, this book’s editor and top Swindon FC man who therefore truly knows the value of a Paolo, to David Luxton, my agent at Lords, to Kim Davies and Ame Verso for their editing skills, to Mr. Wells and Mr. Lewisohn for their brilliant support, to Dirty Den for his tactics, to Tracy for her cakes, to Sahika just for her presence, to Johnny Chandler for his love and Beatle library, and, above all, to Dean Johnson for his care and great hospitality.
I dedicate this book to the soul of Emmet Fox and especially to my daughter, Sarah Jane, because in writing it that is when the light came.
